@aboehler @StateSPEHA @SebGorka Reza Valizadeh, our former @RFERL colleague, an American citizen, is still held prisoner in Iran. Seeing recent returnees this week made it even clearer: every American wrongfully detained deserves to come home. #FreeReza @freerezav

On Tuesday, we were honored to welcome our extraordinary awardees, sponsors, speakers, and guests to the 2026 James W. Foley Freedom Awards. Your support and dedication to press freedom and hostage advocacy are unmatched. Thank you for a truly unforgettable evening. Stay tuned — sponsor shout outs, photos and video from the night will be shared soon! #FoleyFreedomAwards

So proud of my @RFERL colleagues @AlsuKurmasheva & @PashaButorin who turned a dark year of their lives into a motivating factor to become 2 of the world’s foremost advocates for an end to journalists’ imprisonment. Thanks @FoleyDi @JamesFoleyFund for bestowing this honor

A truly unforgettable night with incredible people. Thank you, Dian Foley and the entire team, for standing with us. Andre’s mother @marina99093997 @MarinaSolt67508 continues to pray that Adam Boehler @aboehler will bring her son @freeandrekhach home soon. @BOFHcampaign

Many thanks to @AlsuKurmasheva and @PashaButorin for their incredible support and advocacy for my wife Olga Jezler, who has been wrongfully detained in Russia since June 2022.

WHERE: Russell Senate Office Building Rotunda WHEN: May 4 to May 8, 2026 The exhibit was made possible w/the support of Senate Foreign Relations Committee Ranking Member  Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (NH).
